EROSION CONTROL AND
STORMWATER MANAGEMENT
DESIGN NARRATIVE
EROSION CONTROL NARRATIVE
Project Description:
The purpose of this project is to construct a new driveway and associated site improvements for
the existing North Buncombe Middle School. The middle school in located north of Weaverville
in Buncombe County. The driveway is planned primarily to reduce traffic congestion associated
with dropping off and picking up students. In addition to the proposed construction,
modifications will be made to the existing pavement markings to aid in congestion management.
The project will entail disturbing approximately 3.35 Acres. The project site is a 28.95 Acre
parcel located along North Buncombe School Road in unincorporated Buncombe County. The
property is owned by the Buncombe County Board of Education.
Site Description:
The project site is located at 51 North Buncombe School Road and is bounded by North
Buncombe School Road to the west and primarily single family residential homes on all other
sides. The school buildings are positions on the high point of the site with moderate slopes down
to the east and west of the parcel. There are several existing school structures and auxiliary
buildings on-site as well as tennis courts and ball fields. Most of the parcel area will be left
undisturbed with the work focused on the existing grass slope and wooded area west of the
school.
Adjacent Property:
The property uses bordering this parcel are currently a mixture of wooded, residential and
commercial. The vast majority of the parcel is surrounded by single family residential homes.
Weaverville City limits border the parcel to the south and residentially zoned unincorporated
Buncombe county R-3 border the site to the east and north.
Soils:
The site consists of the following soils (soils were taken from the USDA Online GIS soil map):
Clifton Clay Loam (clay loam) - Hydrology Group B, K value of 0.57 to 1.98 in/hr
Udorthents, loamy (sandy clay loam) - Hydrology Group C, K value of 0.06 to 19.98 in/hr
Udorthents-Urban land complex(2 to 50 percent) - Hydrology Group A, K value of 0.06 to 19.98
in/hr
Urban Land - Hydrology Group NA, K value of NA
Those soils composed of the Clifton Clay Loam have a higher K value and may pose an
increased risk of erodibility. The majority of the disturbed area is comprised of teh Clifton Clay
Loam. However given the erosion controls shown on the plans and the requirement that the
contractor stabilize cleared areas within 7 days this should minimize in erosion problems. The
other soils on the site have lower K values which indicate that they should be more resistant to
erosion. The contractor shall install and maintain all Erosion and Sediment Control measures
shown on the plans which will help reduce and prevent sediment from leaving the project site.
Erosion Control Measures:
All Erosion and Sediment Control Measure shall comply with the latest edition of the North
Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources Practice Standards and
Specifications (NCDENR).
- 5 -
Construction Entrance 6.06: The construction entrance provides a buffer for vehicular traffic
between the construction site and public roadways. The construction entrance aids in removing
mud and sediment from construction vehicles prior to them entering public roadways, as well as
controlling surface runoff and limiting dust. The construction entrance is a graveled area or pad
where vehicles enter or leave the construction site. The construction entrance shall be
constructed where shown on the plans and in accordance with the latest NCDENR Practice
Standards and Specifications.
Permanent Seeding 6.11: Permanent seeding is used on construction sites as the final
stabilization for areas of exposed soil. Permanent seeding helps control runoff and erosion of the
soils on the site by providing a perennial vegetative cover through seeding. Permanent seeding
shall be applied to the areas shown on the plans and shall be in accordance with the details
shown on the plans and the latest NCDENR Practice Standards and Specifications.
Outlet Stabilization Structure 6.41: Outlet Stabilization will be used to control erosion and the
outfalls for the Sediment/SWM Basins, and for the outfalls for other storm drain pipes and
ditches on the project site. These structures prevent erosion by reducing the velocity of the flow
leaving the pipe or channel and dissipating energy. Outlet Stabilization shall be constructed
where shown on the plans and details and in accordance with the latest NCDENR Practice
Standards and Specifications.
Sediment Fence (Silt Fence) 6.62: The purpose of the silt fence is to retain sediment from small
disturbed areas by reducing the velocity of sheet flows which in turn allows sediment to settle
out. Silt fence consists of fabric buried at the bottom, stretched and supported by posts. The silt
fence shall be constructed where shown on the plans and in accordance with latest NCDENR
Practice Standards and Specifications.
Check Dam 6.83: A check dam is a small temporary rock/stone dam constructed across a
drainage ditch or diversion. These help reduce erosion in the channel by reducing the velocity of
the flow in said channel. Rock check dams shall be constructed where shown on the plans and in
accordance with the latest NCDENR Practice Standards and Specifications.
Construction Sequence:
1. Obtain all required permits from NCDEQ for land disturbing activities. Attend pre-
construction meeting with State/School staff.
2. Construct a stabilized construction entrance as shown on plans prior to performing any
grading operations on site.
3. After installation of the construction entrance, and before commencing grading
operations, install all perimeter Erosion Controls, including silt fence and diversion ditches
shown on the erosion control plan.
4. Once perimeter controls have been established, construct outlet protections, drainage
ditches and check dams as shown on the plans. Install additional Erosion Control traps and
barriers as requested by School staff or the engineer. Permanent ditches are to be stabilized
within 7 days of construction.
5. Once all interior site erosion control measures have been installed, contractor can
commence with the clearing of the site in preparation for roadway grading.
6. Construct the cut/fill slopes shown on the plans for the driveway; stabilize slopes within 7
days if slopes are great than 3:1, slopes flatter than 4:1, stabilize within 14 days.
7. Install storm drain system including outlet protection.
- 6 -
8. Stabilize all areas where existing pavement is being replaced with grass within 14 days of
demolition being completed.
9. For areas that will be let idle for longer than 15 calendar days, apply temporary seeding
or matting to help stabilize them until construction resumes.
10. Upon completion of construction, perform final stabilization of the site and remove all
temporary sediment control measures.
11. Request final approval from NCDEQ.
Maintenance:
1. Contractor shall inspect Erosion and Sediment control measures daily and after any
rainfall. Any repairs or deficiencies shall be corrected immediately. A daily record log shall be
maintained on the site by the general contractor and will record any deficiencies and the
corrective measures taken.
2. Contractor shall monitor silt fences for sediment accumulation and remove the sediment
deposits as necessary to provide adequate storage volume for the next storm.
3. All areas with less than 4:1 slope shall be stabilized within 14 days of final grade being
reached. Slopes greater than 3:1 and ditches shall be stabilized within 7 days of final grade being
reached.
4. Installation of additional erosion and sediment control measures may be necessary if
requested by on-site inspection of NCDEQ staff or the owner's representative or the Engineer.
Reference the North Carolina Erosion and Sediment Control Manual Section 6.01-6.02 for
additional information.
5. Contractor shall perform a self-inspection of the Erosion & Sediment Control measures
installed on this project as outlined in the Sediment Pollution Control Act at the end of each
phase of construction to ensure continued compliance with the approved Erosion and Sediment
Control Plans. The Contractor shall document the results of this inspection and any corrective
action taken to bring the site into compliance with the approved Erosion and Sediment Control
Plans for this project on either an inspection form or on the approved Erosion & Sediment
Control Plans stored at the project site and shall make these available to review upon request.
This inspection is separate and independent of the inspections required by the NPDES
Stormwater Permit for Construction Activities.
6. Contractor shall follow the requirements spelled out in the NPDES Stormwater Permit for
Construction Activities issued for this site.

STORMWATER MANAGEMENT NARRATIVE AND CALCULATIONS
A stormwater collection and treatment system has been designed to collect runoff from the
additional impervious area and to detain the post-construction runoff to pre-construction levels.
The proposed system consists of sheet flow drainage from the proposed roadway and parking
areas to swales and one HDPE pipe under the driveway, leading to a bioretention basin with an
outlet structure and pipe. The selected design storm for the system is the 1-year, 24-hour storm as
stipulated by the Buncombe County Stormwater Management Ordinance.
The school site will be maintained as a single parcel and is not subject to the sale of lots. Future
expansion may utilize currently unimproved portions of the parcel but no specific expansions are
under consideration at this time.
For purposes of this stormwater management design, the pre-construction condition shall be
considered as including the facilities present on the site. The post-construction condition includes
the proposed new drive, parking area, asphalt loading strip, as well as minimal new concrete
sidewalks and related impervious surfaces. The portion of the parcel impacted by these
construction activities and the associated pervious and impervious drainage areas are illustrated
in the following exhibit – Drainage Areas N. Buncombe Middle School Renovations and
Additions. A portion of the proposed driveway falls within the NCDOT right of way (ROW) for
N Buncombe School Road. As the stormwater bioretention system cannot be located within this
NCDOT ROW, the bioretention basin has been located just upslope of the ROW. The flow from
the area above the ROW is over-detained to compensate for the minor flow from impervious area
within the ROW.
The portion of the parcel impacted by the proposed driveway project will drain into two existing
catch basins along North Buncombe School Road. Ditch 1 in the Stormwater Management Plan
redirects additional drainage areas from existing and proposed impervious areas to the new
bioretention basin to offset additional stormwater runoff from the new impervious areas on-site.
Drainage Area 1 drains to an existing roadway ditch along N Buncombe School Road. A small
portion of the new impervious area drains to Drainage Area 2 which drains to a catch basin at the
intersection of N Buncombe School Road and Old N Buncombe School Road. These flows then
join together on the west side of N Buncombe School Road. An additional self-contained
drainage area, Drainage Area 3, is shown to represent the inlet and pipe network that serves the
tennis courts and directs the flow from this area to the same catch basin that Drainage Area 2
flow into. Drainage Area 3 is show in all calculations, no changes are proposed to this area and
no changes to the impervious area or resulting flow occur. The following table summarizes the
drainage areas considered for this project.

The proposed stormwater management system captures the runoff from the proposed additional
parking area as well as portions of the currently untreated existing impervious areas and the
majority of the proposed new driveway where the topography and existing ROW allow. As noted
above, a portion of DA#2 is over-detained to offset un-detained areas such that the net flow from
the site is less than the pre-construction discharge. DA#4, which is a small sub-area of DA#1 will
flow across the super elevated roadway to the catch basin across the street.
There is also an 8’ wide asphalt strip planned for access to parked busses in the bus loading area
which is designated as DA#5 in the drainage area maps. The area of approximately 2,200 sq ft of
new built upon area is currently grass but will be replaced by asphalt that will sheet flow to the
adjacent grass disconnected pervious area.
As shown on the drawings, the proposed bioretention area is positioned just above the NCDOT
ROW in the horseshoe bend of the new driveway. The bioretention areas will receive sheet flow
from portion of the driveway and will receive flow from the parking area and remainder of the
driveway via a vegetated ditch terminating in a culvert under the driveway directing flow to the
forbay inlet end of the basin. The basin will provide 1-inch first flush retention and detention of
the 24 hour, 1-year storm such that post-construction discharges are less than or equal to pre-
construction discharges. Infiltration through the bottom of the basins, while likely to contribute
slightly to the overall treatment capacity, is not considered and the basins are designed to treat
the needed volume within the media and discharge is via the underdrains. Volumes in excess of
the media storage capacity will pond on top of the media with a ponding depth of only 6” before
exiting the grate in the outlet control structure. The discharge rate of the system is controlled
primarily via the two-4” underdrain orifices. The 5-year, 24 hour storm event will generate flows
just large enough to begin existing via the proposed outlet grate. All storms less than the 5-year
storm will be released through the media and underdrain system. The swales and pipes are
designed to convey the 25-year storm event. The outlet structure passes the 1000-year storm
without utilizing the emergency spillway.
HydroCAD software was utilized to model the performance of the system for the 24-hour, 1-year
storm event and the 1-inch first flush event. The following HydroCad output demonstrates that
the system will detain the design flow to pre-development discharge rates for the 1-yr 24-hr
storm. The peak pre-development design-storm discharge is 7.54 cfs (HydroCAD Link 12Lof
- 9 -
the following calculations). The post development discharge from the site is reduced to 6.89 cfs
HydroCAD Link 8L, page of the following calculations).
Also included in the HydroCad stormwater modeling printouts are various calculations for all of
the stormwater management components utilized on this project. The stormwater modeling
includes calculations for the existing and proposed drainage area, ditches, proposed drain pipes
and culverts, as well as the bioretention basin.
